Shiro (Takashi Shirogane)

Shiro is a taller-than-average human male with a Herculean physique. He has a broad face and a strong jaw, piercing dark gray eyes and a long, straight nose. He has a jagged pink scar running across the bridge of his nose. Owing to his Japanese heritage, he has pale skin and dark hair styled in an undercut. Due to the stress of Galra captivity, he also has a fluffy white streak located just above his hairline. He has a prosthetic arm to replace his right arm. It has grey plating and a rubbery black layer covering his fingers and the crook of his elbow. Shiro's casul outfit is a black sleeveless vest over a grey skin-tight shirt and black cargo pants. The vest has off-white piping and Shiro keeps the collar popped up. He also wears a grey utility belt with pouches on each hip, and black fingerless gloves. As a Paladin of Voltron, Shiro donned the standard white armour with black highlights in reference to his position as pilot of the Black Lion.

Shiro's personality is that of a born leader, naturally adept at calmly commanding his team. Although he holds a commanding presence, Shiro is actually quite kind as well as sensitive to the struggles and concerns his fellow Paladins are undergoing or may have. Despite how serious and straightforward Shiro can be, he can also be just as silly and laid back as his friends when he has the chance.
